Schaum's Outline of Statics and Strength of Materials (Schaum's)

Book as described in ad and arrived within estimated timeliness

I bought this to review long forgotten material. I find the authors' approach clear and easy to follow.If you want the basics without the theory, I recommend this study guide.As with other Schaum's Outlines, I have found a few, just a few discrepencies in the answers given for the problems.

Decent Examples to help Study/Understand the Text book.

This book is a very useful and practical in terms of themes and presentation tool updated samples.Includes the most distinctive of the mechanics of materials applied to civil engineering topics.I use very much in my classes mechanics of materials, as a teacher of civil engineering career in Venezuela.Thanks from Venezuela.

Nothing; Used it as a reference material for professional engineer examination

Okay. Did not really help with my class.

Decent guide but not very helpful with 3D static problems.

Good book for the price.

I thought it was confusing because compared to other literature it didn't give a deep sense of understanding and on top of that the problems in the book is too easy. Even if you know how to solve the problems in the book, the problems you will get in an exam are so much harder that the tools you get from this book isn't enough to solve those problems.
